Please, please update your child's emergency information! If you've already completed it for this year, THANK YOU! We have a 5th grade class very close to earning the class reward for having all emergency forms submitted. We're excited to have a winning 3rd & 4th grade class too! Submit those forms, please.
Attendance G.O.A.T.
Congratulations to Ms. Plata's 4th grade class for showing up and being here to learn! They earned extra recess and the G.O.A.T. classroom trophy for the month! Way to go!!
WV Ag Trailer
Our 3rd graders had an amazing opportunity to explore and experiment in the Mobile Ag Trailer this past week. All 3rd graders participated in 3 experiments - Corn to Plastic, Three Beans and Milk to Glue. We are blessed to have the Ag Trailer at MRI and share the hands on learning experience with other schools across the state of WV.
Thanks to our parent volunteers who assisted in the Ag Trailer. We appreciate you and the time you spent helping in this learning experience for our 3rd graders.
MRI Relay for Life
Help us add a little this month to our Relay for Life school team. Dig in those couch cushions or check the car for your Dimes & Dollars. Every little bit helps!
Remember to wear PINK on Wednesday for October!

Volunteer
Come volunteer at MRI! Level 1 volunteers are those individuals who have a completed and approved background check. All chaperones for field trips must be a Level 1.
It is recommended that you consider getting your Level 1 if you plan on volunteering at school in any way. This way it's done and you should be good to go! The company will email you a digital card. You must have this to present at field trip time.
Want to volunteer as a mystery reader or help with a class lesson/activity? Communicate with your child's teacher to schedule a time to be here!
Absence Note
Did you send a note yet?
Don't forget to submit your child's absence note.
